Chapter 7

  “Ethan...” she walked closer to him. Tears gently streamed her face, her lips quivered and her eardrums constricted. She couldn't even lift her legs well, it was as though they had been rooted to the ground and were too heavy to lift them. 

  “Ethan... have you forgotten all you said to me? How can you even talk like this? How can you reject me? You said you would never reject me, you said you would protect me, you said you were going to stay with me no matter what, you said...” she paused and swallowed the loud cry that was going to fall off her mouth. Pile tears dripped down her face, she couldn't take the pain that engulfed her heart. 

  Ethan said nothing rather he touched Rissa’s hand and pressed it tightly probably to control himself since his wolf was fighting to set loose. 

  “But you are not good enough for me. You're not ready and strong for the position that lies ahead, I'm sorry Cassie but only love is not enough,” he said and looked away.
